Cameron Delport scored 27 runs in the last match and was the top scorer with the bat for the New Jersey Legends. Delport was timing the ball well during his time out in the middle but he failed to convert it into a match-winning knock. We back Delport to come good and a few more runs to his tally in the last league game and be the top batsman against the California Knights.
Milind Kumar to be the top batter for California Knights
Milind Kumar has been a great addition to the California Knights batting lineup. He scored 19 runs off 12 balls in the previous match against Atlanta Riders but failed to convert it into a big knock but looked solid during his time at the crease.

We believe Milind Kumar to come good and be the top batter for the California Knights against the New Jersey Legends.

Liam Plunkett to be the top bowler for New Jersey Legends
Liam Plunkett has been the most effective bowler for New Jersey Legends picking up five wickets in six matches at an average of 18.60. Plunkett is one of the most difficult bowlers to score runs as he can nail yorkers and bowl slower balls in the death overs and has a high probability of picking up wickets. We back Plunkett to be the top bowler for New Jersey Legends against the California Knights.
Peter Siddle to be the top bowler for California Knights
Peter Siddle bowled a magical spell picking up two wickets on a winning cause in the last match against the Atlanta Riders. He has picked up four wickets in five matches, with the qualifier 1 spot on the line, we believe Siddle to come good and be the top bowler for the California Knights against the New Jersey Legends.
